Roots Partially in Contact with Soil: Analytical Solutions and Approximation in Models of Nutrient and Water Uptake
Root–soil contact entails a trade-off between uptake opportunities and aeration requirements. A single root in the center of a cylinder of soil has been the standard geometry for which most root-level water and nutrient uptake models have been derived. However, this implies assumptions about complet...
